On the heels of the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google launched its own artificial intelligence, Google Bard. Google opened access to Bard in March 2023, allowing users to join a waitlist. By May, Google made Bard available to business owners and the general public in 180 countries and territories. Google Bard is free to use and offers a new way for people to make money with AI.

5 Ways To Make Money With Google Bard

Bard is an enticing AI tool since it is free to use but what exactly is Google Bard and what does it do? Like ChatGPT, Google Bard uses machine learning and natural language programming to complete tasks. This includes research, writing, brainstorming, coding and more. It can also translate languages, proofread writing, write Excel formulas or provide mathematical formulas. Google Bard has access to up-to-the-date information through Google’s search engine. Here are 5 ways to use Google Bard to make money.

  1. Start a blog

  2. Become a content writer

  3. Provide social media management services

  4. Debug code

  5. Develop an app, website or software

1. Start a Blog

AI chatbots like Google Bard make it easier to create content faster. That means if you start a blog, you can create a lot of content to improve your search engine rankings and provide value to your readers.

You can monetize your blog through display ads, Google AdSense, sponsored content, affiliate links or a combination of any of these strategies. Bloggers make an average of $51,971 per year, roughly $4,330 per month.

Once you launch your blog, you can also use Google Bard to help promote it. Bard can offer tips on how to build a mailing list, help you create a compelling newsletter and even create social media campaigns to drive traffic to your blog.

2. Become a Content Writer

If running your own blog doesn’t appeal to you, you can use Bard to write articles for other publishers.

Freelance writers earn an average of $24.22 an hour, although the top 9% in the field earn more than $100,000 a year.

You can use Google Bard to help with every element of content writing, from finding writing jobs, writing a cover letter, outlining articles and doing SEO research. Keep in mind, however, that many publications and websites prohibit the use of AI to write or even outline articles right now. Check the publication’s guidelines or ask your editor or client before you use AI to write.

However, other companies are seeking writers who specialize in engineering AI prompts. These prompts would be used to create informative, engaging articles that can then be edited by a human being. Using AI enables publications and websites to create content much faster than usual.

If you are already making money as a content writer, you may be able to produce more work, faster — and, as a result, write more articles — to earn more money. If not, it may be a good time to get into the field as an AI specialist.

3. Provide Social Media Management Services

Social media specialists that work for companies and organizations earn an average salary of $57,169 per year. But you can command an even higher rate if you start a social media marketing agency and serve multiple clients at the same time.

Bard can help you create content and optimize publishing schedules for LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and more. Bard can also generate ideas for photos or write scripts for TikTok videos or Instagram reels.

4. Debug Code

Sometimes programmers and developers need some help. Maybe they have more work than they can handle, or maybe they are stuck on a particular problem with their code. You can use Bard to help you debug code faster than you would do it alone. It’s all a matter of learning the right prompts.

You can find job listings for debuggers on Fiverr or make your own Fiverr listing to advertise your services.

5. Develop an App, Website or Software

Many people have ideas for a game or app or have a vision for a website but not the time or technical know-how to create them. If you have basic coding skills and know how to engineer AI prompts — or are willing to learn how — you can find these people and bring their visions to life.

Many freelancers advertise their services on the freelance job site Fiverr. Services include creating apps, websites and even AI chatbots for businesses. For instance, one Fiverr worker was asking $120 to create an AI chatbot, content writing program or AI assistant using Bard. Depending on how quickly you can work to create apps using Bard, you can earn thousands a month or more. App developers, on average, earn roughly $1,500 per month.

You can also use Bard to create your own revenue-generating apps rather than developing code for other people.

Final Take

Making money with AI is easy to do these days. Keep in mind that you still need to put in some time and edit the responses before submitting them to clients. But whatever your skill set, if you have a computer or smartphone, you can earn $3,000 or more a month with Google Bard.
